Summary:

The students considered the course's difficulty level and the work required as Appropriate. They were satisfied with the quality of the lectures and workshops, and evaluated them as Very good. The majority of the students evaluated the level of the mandatory assignments, the number of them and the amount of work involved as Appropriate.

The general impression by the students was that it was a very well structured course with interesting topics and an engaged lecturer. They also liked that they only used pen and paper in class. The students found the documentary films and video clips very relevant, but they wished they had more time to discuss them afterwards. The home exam was well received, but some of the students found the amount of work required a bit large.

Quotes:

Dedicated teacher, interesting curriculum. I really liked how we went "old school" with no computers in class, and just pen and paper.

Well structured, challenging, great that the course schedule and syllabus is fixed in advanced

Sometimes I wish we discussed the films/clips further. [...]

I thought [the home exam] was very large and I wish that I had started to read the secondary curriculum earlier on and not a week before the lecturers were finished. I did really like that it was very open and that we could write something that could possibly be used in our master thesis. It makes us think about our master earlier and I quite enjoyed that.

About the course evaluation
